Abstract

Context: Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi is used in Brazilian folk medicine due to the wound healing and antiseptic properties of its bark, and its fruit are used as a condiment. However, the aerial parts of this plant have been studied and present some bioactive compounds as well.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the variation in volatile and non-volatile composition of S. terebinthifolia leaves using untargeted metabolomics.

Material and methods: The leaves of four trees were collected over one year; ethanolic extracts were analyzed by UHPLC-MS and fresh leaves were analyzed by GC-MS using HS-SPME. The data were processed using online software.

Results: The results suggest seasonality interfered little with the chemical composition of leaves. On the other hand, the sex of the plant clearly determined the chemical composition of both volatile and non-volatile compounds.

Discussion and conclusions: Chemical variability between plants with male and female flowers is fundamental information for the standardized use of its leaves. Compounds with important biological activities were putatively identified, confirming the potential use of S. terebinthifolia leaves as a source of bioactive compounds, reducing waste and increasing economic gains for local farmers throughout the year.

Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi-Untargeted代谢组学方法研究挥发性和非挥发性化合物的化学变异。

背景：Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi 树皮具有愈合伤口和杀菌的功效，因此在巴西民间医药中被广泛使用，其果实也被用作调味品。然而，人们对这种植物的气生部分也进行了研究，并发现了一些生物活性化合物：本研究旨在利用非靶向代谢组学研究 S. terebinthifolia 叶子挥发性和非挥发性成分的变化：收集了四棵树一年的叶子，乙醇提取物采用超高效液相色谱-质谱法进行分析，鲜叶采用 HS-SPME 气相色谱-质谱法进行分析。数据使用在线软件进行处理：结果表明，季节性对叶片化学成分的影响很小。另一方面，植物的性别明显决定了挥发性和非挥发性化合物的化学成分：讨论与结论：雌雄花植物之间的化学成分差异是其叶片标准化使用的基本信息。研究发现了具有重要生物活性的化合物，证实了将 S. terebinthifolia 叶子用作生物活性化合物来源的潜力，从而减少了浪费，并为当地农民全年增加了经济收益。

期刊介绍： Metabolites (ISSN 2218-1989) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal of metabolism and metabolomics. Metabolites publishes original research articles and review articles in all molecular aspects of metabolism relevant to the fields of metabolomics, metabolic biochemistry, computational and systems biology, biotechnology and medicine, with a particular focus on the biological roles of metabolites and small molecule biomarkers. Metabolites encourages scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on article length. Sufficient experimental details must be provided to enable the results to be accurately reproduced. Electronic material representing additional figures, materials and methods explanation, or supporting results and evidence can be submitted with the main manuscript as supplementary material.
